Effects of Boron Compounds on the Mechanical and Fire Properties of Wood-chitosan and High-density Polyethylene Composites

Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) represent a growing class of durable, low-maintenance construction materials whose use can decrease dependence on petroleum. High-density polyethylene (HDPE), chitosan (CS), wood flour (WF), boric acid (BA), and borax (BX), as well as maleic anhydride grafted polyethyl...
